Mission Statement
Our mission is to provide a nurturing and safe environment where children can creatively express themselves through developmentally appropriate activities.
“Developing minds one child at a time.”
Diana’s Playpen of Little Geniuses provides quality, supportive, family-centered child care and early education programs for young children, from six weeks to six years old, in a nurturing and safe environment while their parents pursue careers or educational interests. We provide a warm environment in which the children are valued and respected as brilliant individuals. Professional staff encourages each child to creatively express him or herself through developmentally appropriate activities.
We afford opportunities for children. We seek to develop a child’s strong sense of self. They are encouraged to explore cognitive, social/emotional, intellectual, and language development. We change everyday lives through highly specialized care for children.
Our Further Approach to Early Learning
We begin with an age-appropriate environment that encourages children to learn, play, and explore with books, blocks, toys, and musical instruments. You name it, we build children’s math skills through devices such as counting with sticks; they explore agriculture by planting seeds in a garden. Our guiding principle is to help your child master the skills necessary to succeed in school and in life. We believe in building a child’s strong sense of play.
Our Head Start program is the heart of our early childhood program. We use The Creative Curriculum® for Preschool, one of the most widely used pre-K curricula in the nation. A comprehensive, research-based, research-proven curriculum that features exploration and discovery as a way of learning. This curriculum is academically rigorous and promotes social-emotional development. Has been proven to increase kindergarten readiness and is aligned with all state early learning guidelines and the Head Start Early Learning Outcome. Our program fosters whole-child development, helping your child grow physically, intellectually, emotionally, and socially. Our experienced teachers bring learning to life, sharing their everyday enthusiasm and wisdom.
